Question Only display one image based on query?

How to only display one image based on this query?

Code:
SELECT DISTINCT
tbl1.tbl1id, tbl1.headline, tblimages.tbl1id
FROM
tbl1
Inner Join tblimages ON tbl1.tbl1id = tblimages.tbl1id

OR
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT
tbl1.tbl1id, tbl1.headline, tblimages.tbl1id
FROM
tbl1 ,tblimages
WHERE
tbl1.tbl1id = tblimages.tbl1id

As soon as I add tblimages.imagename it shows all 20 records and not the distinct records or one of.

What I mean;
I have two tables - tbl1 and tblimages
tbl1 is the parent
tblimages is the child

tbl1 has 10 records
tblimages has 20 records 2 images for each record in tbl1

All I would like is to display one image based on each headline.

Cheers

you could use limit to get only one result row:

Code:
SELECT someColumn1, someColumn2
FROM TableName
    INNER JOIN OtherTable ON TableName.ID=OtherTable.ID
LIMIT 1


limit works by using "offset, count" so if you wanted the 5th row, you could use LIMIT 5,1 or if you wanted numbers 11-15 you can do LIMIT 11,5 which would pull back 5 rows starting at 11.

That is interesting, thank you.
I only needed one image per headline...
Code:
group by tbl1.tbl1id

Without DISTINCT and now I never have to use a nested repeated tool ever again.
